I had to grab this picture on the way to work with its strong colour

contrast and dynamic.

The Foehn, like the Chinook, is a rapidly descending south-north wind

in the Alps on the leading edge of a intense low pressure area. It is

characteristic of spring weather here in Switzerland and causes winds

to reach speeds up to 120 kmh in the upper levels.

I wouldn't crop it. The clouds add depth and a sense of space, and the mature tree provides a feeling of size. Nice work.
